LEVITATION ABOVE THE OCEAN Painting

Teuta Pashnjari was born in Albania in 1996. She established an early interest in art as a child because of her father who loved drawing.​​​ At the age of 13, Pashnjari moved to Corfu Island where she spent twelve years. Growing up, her main goal became pursuing a career as a fine artist and challenging her creative ideas by diving deeper into the art world. In 2019, Pashnjari started her Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art at TAMK in Finland. In 2022 Pashnjari moved to Paris to start an exchange semester at ICART, école d'art et de culture. ''As a fine artist working with site-specific and time-specific projects, I am continually inspired by the weather and color of my environment. Through my work, I seek to explore the intersection of memory, place, and time, and to create artworks that are both beautiful and thought-provoking. My work is primarily autobiographical, and I draw on my own experiences and personal observations. I aim to create immersive environments that transport the viewer to another time and place. Ultimately, my goal as an artist is to create spaces that invite the viewer to slow down, to take a deep breath, and to reflect on their own experiences of the world around them.''
